Thing is though the evo has a better chassis and drivetrain. Im a VAG boy down to my socks, but they are just too tempermental.
Cant say I have ever had issues.. But guess I may have just been lucky..
I would argue the chassis side.. The Supercopa Cup cars are proof that when fitted with proper dampers its an absolute peach and for the drivetrain the Evo's blow transfer cases like there going out of fashion once there running decent power
Well my gripes with the 2.0TFSI is the fuel pump issues, cam follower issues, pcv issues, valve spring issues, coil pack issues and im gonna have to trade it in for something 4wd eventually anyway as I have ambitions of having a car around 500hp. The cupra was always meant to have been a stop gap car till I could afford to insure a evo or similiar, and once im 21 I can pretty much insure anything.
jase, just keeep it, once we sort out this issue and do a few more things you will be back in love with the cupra again trust me..
i have my days when i think, fuk it this car is sh1t but then other days it puts a smile on my face.
That is true, just two days ago or so I was having some fun tearing up the blacktop and I said out loud "I love this car" lol. The flat spot and intermittent limp mode stuff though depresses me. Its on my mind 24/7. I think about it when I go to sleep at night, when I wake up, when Im at work. Surely its not healthy
Reckon mick would be able to get new valves on our motors? Might be hard if the car doesnt have the flat spot without the map.
